About this book

Directing the Washburn Observatory and teaching astronomy at the University of Wisconsin, George C. Comstock wrote this school text for the Twentieth Century Text-Books series, with a preface dated February 1901. He leaves out much of the science on purpose and stresses observation: the apparatus can be built at home from the drawings, apart from a watch and a protractor. Star maps, planetary orbit diagrams and pictures of the moon and sun support the lessons, and the first chapter deals with measuring angles and time.
